Chapter 1183. Short Series A Human Success Part 6
How long are you going to remain as a cultural entertainer? Yazawa-san told governor Murata. If you intend to be a politician for the rest of your life, then you should turn over a new leaf. As of now, you’re not worthy to see Kakka Governor Murata looks at Yazawa-san dumbfoundedly. Then, the secretary. You can’t say that! Murata-sensei, no, we’re doing the best that we can for the future of Japan! And yet, a gofer of the Kouzuki house and a high-school boy for some reason is mocking Murata-sensei! This isn’t allowed! There’s too much to object here! Then, he spoke to governor Murata. Sensei, we’re filing a defamation case to them! No, we’re going to go to a press conference first! In the first place, I couldn’t stomach the nobility and those who think of themselves as the privileged class! No matter what these people tell you, Sensei won’t lose his worth! They are just imbeciles who could not understand Murata-sensei’s splendor! is that so? Isn’t that obvious? Murata-sensei, you graduated from Tokyo University, loved by your viewers on TV as a political scientist, social critic, and author, have risen to the position of the prefectural governor after defeating the previous generation. That’s right! I’m Murata Hideo! I’m a hero! The name of the new party Murata-sensei’s establishing is based on the Japan Revolutionary hero party, and even your catchphrase is be a hero The fans on Yokohama Governor Murata said. That’s why I couldn’t decide on which one to use, it was that or Move on! If you have the mind for it What’s this talk? I mean, I really wanted to be the governor in the Kanagawa prefecture. But, I wasn’t in a position to win in that election We’ve just begun! We’re just starting! Murata-sensei! Err, what’s with this skit? Anyway, I’m going to post this humiliation I’ve received from you people on Twitter and in the blogs! Murata-sensei has a million followers! You heard t right! A million fighters! that’s right! I’ll make you regret turning me away! You’ll regret this! I. What? How? I replied calmly. Look, your threats won’t work, and it’s useless to get us to lose our temper by getting emotional and heating up in the first place These people are trying to get us angry. They feign ignorance on their own insults and want us to slip up and insult them, using that as a weapon to fight back. I can see that’s their plan. I’m a voter, and he’s just a high school student. Do you have problems with s expressing opinions towards politicians? Yazawa-san speaks with a calm tone. Neither he nor I talked about anything big. If you exaggerate what we said and spread them over the internet, then it’s you who will be in trouble. Kouzuki house has excellent lawyers after all are you threatening us? Governor Murata glared at Yazawa-san. I haven’t said anything like that, have I? I do know that a slight smell of lawsuits brings threats to the table. I would rather say that it’s a problem with what you say. As mentioned earlier, we’re recording everything in this room. I think that your lines are much more defamatory and threatening He stared at the two. Furthermore, are you sure that you want to publicize our meeting? We’re in Tokyo, and this is an establishment owned by the Kouzuki house. Kouzuki house didn’t come to your prefectural office to make the petition. It’s you, the prefectural governor, who wants to start a new party, who went all the way to Tokyo to make the petition. Throwing away your political duties as the governor Yeah, it’s governor Murata who came wanting Jii-chan’s money and connections. Try cooling down yourself a bit. Find what it means to fight the Kouzuki house I stood up. It’s time. Yazawa-san, let’s go Yazawa-san looked at his wristwatch. Oh, it’s exactly fifteen minutes Yazawa-san stood up. I looked at governor Murata-san. Well then, Murata-san, if you’d excuse us. I had fun talking to you. I learned a lot I bow my head. I couldn’t help you at all, but good luck in the future I said with a smile. Well then, excuse us Yazawa-san looked at the governor and said. hey, wait! Governor Murata speaks in a surprised tone. Uhm, what about us Yazawa-san. Oh. You can go to the reception and go home. Leave the keys in the room, we’ll deal with the aftermath later Yazawa-san talks only about this hotel room. After that, you’re free to take a taxi or whatever you need to go home. Good job for today We left the room. You sure don’t get agitated Yazawa-san tells me as soon as we got to the corridor. Oh, sorry No, I’m praising you I. I’m already used to it, besides, all they did was just make noise. They’re not holding any dangerous weapons, nor they won’t just suddenly come and kill me There’s no danger in my life so I don’t get scared. Hmm, I guess it’s because you’ve been in a lot of carnage Yazawa-san smiles. Thanks to that, I’m able to live my life cheerfully I’m not scared of people who don’t yield to reason. The real scary people are those who would stab me out of the blue for no reason. Oh well, let’s go back to Kakka We get in the elevator and then back to Jii-chan’s room. Welcome back! Agnes welcomes us back with a smile. Agnes, give me a moment, I’m about to report the job to Jii-chan Okay! Katsuko-chan! Agnes looked at Katsuko-nee. Yes, I already called them to bring in the parfait Oh, they were waiting for me to come back. I went to Jii-chan and old man Kira’s table. The two old men are already enjoying the coffee brought in by the room service. The laptop on the table shows governor Murata’s room. They were watching our conversation from there. Oh, the governor and his secretary are both at their wits’ end. Kouzuki, have idiots like this increased recently? Old man Kira looked at governor Murata at the screen and asked. Indeed. They’ve increased, it’s miserable to say but that that kind of people have influence in their directions Jii-chan replied. However, this one seems to have a well-defined principle, but in reality, they talk about weird stuff logically, yet it has no substance. They just scream their sentiments loudly and nothing else For some reason, that kind of person is getting support. Why do you think so? Jii-chan looked at me. I. It’s because they talk with a clear conclusion. They assert themselves that they are right, and the other party is wrong Yes, governor Murata. He asserts that he’s right. Even when facing Yazawa-san and me, he speaks You should know, This is obvious, pushing the idea that his thoughts are right and accepted Umu, indeed Jii-chan smiled. The younger generation today seems to feel like they must always be on the right side. However, that right judgment, is complicated. That’s why they tend to follow people who shout This is the right thing to do Jii-chan said. So their decision-making on what’s right, has gone down? Old man Kira said. Have the younger people of today become stupid compared to before? I. I don’t think so. The young today can think for themselves, and they also can judge what’s good or bad Indeed. I think that the younglings today are smart. They’re wise and know discernment Jii-chan agreed with me. Then, why are people swayed by that man’s honey talk? That’s. That’s because they’re good at presenting their materials to their conclusion I replied. Everyone wants to be on the winning side, don’t they? People like governor Murata will only talk about information that’s convenient for them, loudly and skillfully insisting that they are right. If they make the decision just from that information, they’ll surely come under the impression that governor Murata is right People will be convinced that it’s the right decision, even if it’s just limited information Jii-chan said. That’s right. Furthermore, governor Murata will deliberately try to bring the mood of the place to his side by becoming emotional. If you’re trying to calmly discuss the issue, he will agitate you by getting louder and louder, saying you’re derailing the discussion, or you’re misinterpreting what I’m saying. That way, the people listening to the debate from his side will feel as if governor Murata has debunked the other side. If he uses a strong tone and blames the other party, it’ll look like governor Murata’s scolding the other side Japanese people are sensitive to the atmosphere, and so they think less about their reasoning but creating the mood that’s convenient to them Old man Kira nodded. That’s right. That’s why we can’t engage in a conversation even when you have a decent argument. Governor Murata came to impose his opinion, and he has no intention of listening. He only wants to show the people around him his victory in arguments. That’s how he attracts people with how right he is, that’s his objective That’s why his words have no meaning. He only uses his momentum to attack the other party. The people above his generation probably never scolded him properly. Or maybe, even when he is, he only secludes himself in his shell thinking I’m not wrong, and so he would never understand any reason why he’s being scolded Jii-chan said. Uhm, this is a story from my middle school I. When I was in middle school, I was in a dorm boys’ school, but, when there’s a fuss during the night, the night watch teacher will find them and knock them, making them sit on their soles I remember the time when I was in my second year. That student is in the basketball club and he had a match the next day. So, he lost the game and protested to the school, he’s been holding a grudge against the teacher who scolded him the night before Why? Old man Kira asked me. Well, the teacher knew that he had an important match the next day and yet, the teacher still beat him up and made him sit for two hours in the middle of the night. Because of that, he didn’t get enough sleep, he hurt his knee, and he couldn’t move like he usually does, and he couldn’t concentrate on the match because he was worried about getting hit. Therefore, the basketball team lost the preliminary round of the prefectural tournament.the reason being the teacher made them sit on their sole the night before That’s unjustified resentment Well, using corporal punishment in school is a problem nowadays. If there would be a court case based on that student’s claim, it could damage the school’s reputation, and the school had to be careful with it, wouldn’t they? Jii-chan said. In
